AGL SDKs
To build your AGL services or AGL applications using XDS, you must install a Software Development Kit (SDK) that matches your target/board.
An SDK is a package that includes all the tools you need to cross-build and cross-debug your service or application. You install an SDK by running the SDK Installer.
You can build an AGL SDK Installer for your board or you can download a pre-built installer.
This section describes how you can download a pre-built SDK Installer using either the command line or the XDS Dashboard. For information on how to build an SDK Installer, see the "Download or Build Your SDK Installer" section.
NOTES: - In order to use the command line or the XDS Dashboard to download an SDK Installer, you must have the XDS Client set up in your toolchain (i.e. 'xds-cli'). If you did not install 'xds-cli', see the "Client Part" section for instruction on how to install XDS UI.
- See the "xds-server" chapter for more information on SDK management.
Command Line Operations
This section describes how to download and install an SDK, abort an installation, install an SDK from a local directory, and view all installed SDKs.
Download and Install an SDK Using the Command Line
Use the following commands to choose and install a pre-built SDK Installer:
# List all available SDKs

You are about to install the SDK to "/xdt/sdk/poky-agl/4.99.5/corei7-64". Proceed[Y/n]? Y
Extracting SDK....................................................................................................................done
Setting it up...done
SDK has been successfully set up and is ready to be used.
Each time you wish to use the SDK in a new shell session, you need to source the environment setup script e.g.
$ . /xdt/sdk/poky-agl/4.99.5/corei7-64/environment-setup-corei7-64-agl-linux
SDK ID d65fe750-d3a7-38f5-83d8-3d3806054f8d successfully installed.
Abort an Installation that is in Progress
To abort an ongoing installation (i.e. the xds-cli sdks install d65fe750
in this example), use
the ctrl-C key sequence. Ctrl-C only stops the XDS Client (xds-cli).
The download or installation process running in the background
is not stopped.
In such cases, the xds-cli sdks ls command results in an
Installing appearing in the STATUS column for all running installations.
If for some reason you need to abort, use the sdks abort command:
xds-cli sdks abort -id d65fe750
Install an SDK Using a Local SDK Package or File
If you have an SDK Installer that is already local to your system, you can use the command line to install it from your local directory:
xds-cli sdks install --file $HOME/xds-workspace/sdks/poky-agl-glibc-x86_64-agl-demo-platform-crosssdk-corei7-64-toolchain-4.99.5.sh
NOTE:
Installation based on a local SDK Installer is only supported when the
SDK Installer is in the $HOME/xds-workspace/sdks directory.
List Installed SDKs
To list the installed SDKs, use the following command:
xds-cli sdks ls
List of installed SDKs:
ID NAME STATUS VERSION ARCH
e45ac787 AGL-corei7-64-4.99.5+snapshot Installed 4.99.5 x86_64
d65fe750 AGL-release-eel-latest-qemux86-64 Installed 4.99.3 corei7-64
Install an SDK Using the XDS Dashboard
Follow these steps to locate, download, and install an SDK using the XDS Dashboard:
-
Open the XDS Dashboard in a Web Browser and select
SDKsin left-hand menu. -
Switch to
SDKs MANAGEMENTview. Following is an example:
{:: style="margin:auto; display:flex"}
-
Use filter boxes to find the SDK you want to install.
-
Click on the "plus" icon in the "Actions" column to start the installation.
The SDK Installer downloads and the installation process begins. In can take several minutes for the installation to complete. Following is an example of the output:
{:: style="margin:auto; display:flex"}
NOTE:<\br>
If for some reason you need to abort an ongoing SDK installation,
you can do so by clicking the CANCEL button.
